Inspiration sessions for those curious about healthier collaboration
When you start fine-tuning your organisation, you do so from a certain frame of reference – a set of beliefs. It’s your vision on how organisations function, on leadership, people, the world, and success. While this may seem obvious to you, be aware that everyone else at the drawing board also has their own vision. And this can lead to quite a bit of noise and difficult processes.
My inspiration sessions offer food for thought, and provide new insights along with a shared language. This helps tremendously to discuss concepts such as mission, vision, structure, leadership and autonomy with greater awareness and ease. Such preparation pays itself back abundantly in time and quality once you really get to work.
I would love to inspire you in the form of a keynote, lecture or workshop. Always tailored to your organization, and preferably in interaction with the group.
As a guide for senior management, I help organizations forge a path towards a structure that works
Nature as inspiration for structure
In this session I will take you beyond the classic power pyramid. I’ll show you why an organization doesn’t function like a machine, but rather as a living organism. And how we can learn a great deal about organizing and collaboration from nature.
After this, you’ll never look at the concept of ‘hierarchy’ in the same way again.
Duration: 1 half day

Mission & vision, but different
Does everyone on the executive team collectively sigh when the words “mission and vision” are mentioned? Understandable: they’ve become catch-all terms that lead to many semantic discussions and produce laborious results.
I offer you a very simple, engaging model that provides the language and gusto to have truly meaningful conversations about these concepts.

You’re about to redesign the structure of your organization, but you’re not quite sure how to approach such a process. Where do you start, what does it involve?

Koen, our joint client was absolutely thrilled about how the new way of working enabled them to respond very quickly to the COVID situation. The Board was also impressed. Another feather in your cap!
